Charging control (80% charge/scheduled full charge if wanted) is available on my Pixel with CalyxOS
is it not available on the Fairphones?

because swap does other things than “extending” your physical ram

the new plasma 6 panel can be customized to pretty much a dock
the default tasks applets still isn’t nearly as good though

in the right meme I believe the nvidia driver borked

The Arch Linux team releases Nvidia updates at the same time as kernel upgrades which should trigger a initramfs rebuild via mkinitcpio anyway

unless you do a partial upgrade anyway (never do that)

which bootloader can’t do this? EFISTUB, systemd-boot and rEFInd can

you guys use GRUB lol

My Arch Linux Homeserver and VPS which ran since years are like: “huh?”

Not a single Ubuntu upgrade failure on my book anymore 🤞

No and since systemd you actually can have an empty fstab file too (booting via solely automounting is possible)

newer versions of coreutils require --no-preserve-root on /* too

Interestingly enough the Arch Linux subreddit is or was way more tame in comparison to its forum
at least I always quoted the relevant paragraph in the wiki alongside a link since I believe it did a better job at explaining it than I could
and if it wasn’t in the wiki I added it into it beforehand

.zip is already a thing

I’m using Caddy (sometimes in a container or most of the time as system package) as reverse proxy mostly for containers
I try to minimize non-container services but they work well with Caddy too

Traefik is a tad more complex (still nowhere near Apache2 levels though) but scales more easily espcially if you only run containers and start/stop them programatically

if you are open to learn something new: Caddy webserver has a dead simple config, fetches tls certs by default for you and works with crowdsec too

Valve releases Steam as Flatpak too

the way SteamOS works is extremely different to how a regular Arch Linux runs so I wouldn’t really conclude anything from that
it just shows how little the underlying distro matters

it is kinda wild that people abandon Windows 7 because of Steam and not because Microsoft stopped patching it several years ago

Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

I don’t think Steam actually recommends any distro since some time anymore

even consumer SSDs have around 1500 TBW (Terrabytes written) per TB until warrenty excludes any failure
which means you could write for example every day for 10 years 400 GB on a 1 TB SSD
this is already a very low estimate, most SSDs do better

anyway OP mentioned enterprise SSDs which can write 1.0x or 2.0x it’s own size every day for 10 years

for someones who values security above everything else thats totally fine
but for someone who wants to reduce e-waste by prolonging the life of a phone with at least some updates this might be not the best solution

CalyxOS supports Pixel devices far longer than GrapheneOS does (they drop them once Google drops support too)
